Participants in the discussion noted the general recovery of the market, which began with the beginning of October, 2013, which is associated with a non-occurring sharp rise in the dollar, expected in early autumn. Experts noted the high growth potential of objects with good transport accessibility, however, market participants understand that developer profitability will not increase sharply. The experts also identified two main factors for the growth of developer profitability - a reduction in the cost of acquiring construction sites and a decrease in interest rates when financing projects.
